MOVED!

ok this weekend was one of the most tiring weekends ive ever had...and i know tired, im pretty much tired ALL the time anyway.

so yesterday i went to the church to check it out. i have to say im pretty sure im going to take the job. its a really nice church. they are currently even redoing everything because the church has grown so much they r enlarging the children and student areas. they're beautiful! they were finishing up a 4 week series about SEX. which is amazing to me that they would talk about it with the entire congregation...thats so different from normal conservative churches. so i was immediately impressed with that. and the worship was good and modern and most importantly the congregation was really into it singing and really worshippin God. i definitely felt the Holy Spirit chillin with everyone. then the executive pastor took me around and introduced me to everyone and showed me all the buildings and people. they all knew who i was and were really excited to meet me! that was a good sign! they said they had heard so much about me! yay! their childrens program and the new childrens director are AMAZING! it was probably the coolest childrens program ive ever seen! i kinda wanted to join in...seriously.

so he asked me to pray about it and call him on tuesday or wednesday with how i want to progress. that sounds like i got offered the job right?

so heres how i feel about it. im struggling with feeling like...takin a job at an ultra wealthy upper white class church like that totally goes against what i believe. BUT at the same time, this is where i grew up. this is my people group. these people and kids need Jesus too...even more so because they think they have everything they need cause they think they're perfect and dont need God. so im convincing myself that im not a sell out. and to not be embarrassed. and to make a difference with where God has offered me.

anyway,
moving after church went well. it was A LOT of work and im pretty sure i never EVER want to move again. but it was mostly books and clothes so unpacking went quickly. i was suprised with how many clothes i have and bags and shoes. i had 2 bags of stuff to donate and 2 bags of trash. crazy! mom helped me unpack a lot! so now i just have a few more boxes and the curtains and i need to put my pictures and stuff up.

wormy slept with me last night. she was SO good! i was suprised! but today when i left she was crying a little in her cage (i figured she would be nervous in a new place all alone), and i got all nervous about the neighbors, but i could hardly hear her outside the bedroom door and when i left i realized the neighbors were all at work anyway! yay!

this morning i woke up early and took wormy for a walk along the beach. 2 blocks from my house! she loved it and it will help her sleep while im gone and she got to go potty. and i loved it. i like walking along flat roads...especially along the ocean!

ok. i gotta go now...my days r crazy! tonight i have to pick up bella so tonight is going to be more eventful im sure. i need to buy her a no-bark collar too.

so i should definitely take the job right?!

im loving my life even tho im so so tired!
